Atmospheric fine particulate matter causing Alzheimer's disease through olfactory bulb pathway: a review of recent studies / 上海交通大学学报（医学版）

ABSTRACT

With the improvement of quality of life, the life expectancy of residents is generally prolonged, and people suffering from Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is increasing. Epidemiological and animal experiments have found that atmospheric particulate matter is associated with AD. This article briefly reviews the mechanisms of AD-related oxidative stress damage and neuroinflammation caused by atmospheric fine particulate matter entering the brain via olfactory bulb pathway.
